"One of the most delightful parts of user testing is watching users do things in a completely different way to how you thought they would. As designer Marcin Treder advised in Interaction Design Best Practices, “never underestimate the path of least resistance”.

User behavior should surprise you. These are the sorts of findings that you test users for in the first place. It means that your testing was well worth the effort."

"This simple chocolate cake gets its deep chocolate flavor from the addition of espresso powder. More espresso powder is added to the chocolate frosting to give it a light, yet distinct, coffee flavor. And the whole thing’s easy to assemble, making this an ideal recipe for a novice baker who wants to make a special birthday cake. "

"So you want to learn programming. Maybe you have asked your developer friends for recommendations and get different answers. They explained with terms that you don’t understand (what is object-oriented?!). To help you to pick your first programming language to learn, here is an easy-to-understand infographic that recommends the best option, depending on your purpose and interest. Details such as learning difficulty, popularity, and average salary for each computer programming language are provided too."

"Regardless of who you are, what you do for a living, where you are in your journey, or what your specific goals happen to be at any point in time, success is always about one thing: setting aggressive goals and accomplishing them.

What happened to a world in which we can sit with the people we love so much and have slow conversations about the state of our heart and soul, conversations that slowly unfold, conversations with pregnant pauses and silences that we are in no rush to fill?"

"Fast, healthy, and surprisingly addictive, this salad could easily become your go-to dish for barbecues, potlucks, and picnics. It comes together in mere minutes, but be sure to leave time for the salad to chill and the flavors to meld before serving."

"The concept of the web as an application platform has never been more popular, but the tools used to create these so-called “web apps” are still fraught with pitfalls that are often ignored or misunderstood. Single-page web app frameworks have gained traction because they can easily be used to create fast, complex applications that feel much more solid and interactive than traditional websites. But this benefit, and the changes in mindset and development practices that accompany it, comes at the cost of basic browser functionality that web developers sometimes take for granted. "

"While there is a long list of people involved with the Treaties, both tribal and non-tribal, there are a few about whom a fair amount is known. We have selected a small collection of individuals about whom information is available.
